what specific Canyon bike(s) are you looking at?
I just checked the sizing for an Exceed hardtail and Canyon says I should get a small. I am 175cm tall with a 84 cm (actual) inseam and they say I should ride a bike with a 415mm reach, 597 stack, and 575 ETT. The 75° STA is on the steep side of a XC hardtail. that geo is consistent with "old school" XC sizing for a small bike designed for someone a few inches shorter than me. the only way that bike would fit me would be with a 100mm+ stem. I like a fairly compact fit on my mountain bike, so I don't know what Canyon is doing. I'll cross Canyon off my list of bikes I would ever buy because I can't see their sizing as anything other than totally whack.
